  • Patent number: 9748538
    Abstract: A motor vehicle battery has a plurality of battery modules (12). Each battery module (12) is fastened to housing walls (15) of a battery housing (11). The battery housing (11) has at least two housing modules (17, 18) positioned above one another and formed with housing module walls (19, 20). At least some of the mutually adjoining housing module walls (19, 20) interengage in the manner of toothing to form the housing walls (15, 16).

  • Publication number: 20170140551
    Abstract: A segmentation/prediction method is described for differentiating between infarct, penumbra and healthy regions in a tomographic (e.g. MRI or CT) image dataset of the brain of a stroke patient under examination. The method comprises deriving (7, 11) a multidimensional set of feature vectors from a plurality of baseline modalities, where the modalities comprising both structural and functional modalities. For each volume element of image dataset, an n-dimensional feature vector is extracted (8, 12), such that it represents both structural and functional modalities of the volume element. A classification (13) is performed on the volume element and the classification is used to inform the segmentation (14) in order to label the volume element as belonging to healthy tissue, penumbra tissue, or infarct tissue.

  • Patent number: 6095518
    Abstract: Sheet stacks (4) removed from a collecting station (1) by a transport gripper (5) are deposited onto a vertically movable depositing table (6) so as to rest against stops (8, 10). The stops (8, 10), which are attached to stationary, horizontally movable pull-out rails (11), have first and second vertical surfaces (8a and 8b) which are interconnected by oblique surfaces (8c), the second surfaces (8b) being set back with respect to the first surfaces (8a). The upper surface of the deposited sheet stack (4) is kept at a functionally correct depositing level by two sensors (17, 18), of which one is associated with the center area and one with the staple area (12, 13). The deposited sheet stack (4) strikes against the first surfaces (8a) with its end face, and is then released by the transport gripper (5). Lowering the depositing table (6) causes the end face of the sheet stack (4) to enter the area of the set-back surfaces (8b), allowing it to rest without hindrance flat on the deposited stack (7).
